I was willing to do 1 MM as a compromise, but I prefer 0. So I will vote against because I think its a waste of money and we get no value.
Paying an automated MM to create fake trades is all this will do in reality. While I understand it creates the impression in people's minds that we have activity, its really just something that "feels good". Its a waste of money and we don't need it.
These are irrelevant markets and this "pay to play" model is extremely distasteful. I'm sure there are people that actually think this provides value by marketing the game, but I'm also sure there are many that know that's simply not true and these "market makers" are just churning trades to make sure the exchange gets some revenue.
We have decentralized exchanges that can exchange our assets into any crypto, so the purpose of paying payola to keep these 2nd tier markets filled with fake volume is a pure destruction of money. We should protect our money better in my opinion, and be real about what value this provides or we will run out of money fast.
